Savannah: Project Info - Fenfire - a hyperstructured UI, which includes Gzz, which is about implementing Ted Nelson's ZigZag (there are licensing issues, so expecting refactoring ;-)

Fenfire is adopting the RDF model.

mies - Meta Information Exchange System
"The WYMIWYG meta information exchange system (mies) allows you to add and retrieve comments, notes, explanations, ratings and similar (=annotations) about webpages. Mies shares the annotations building a decentral and trust based network with peers.

Soon it will also be possible to share bookmarks in te same decentral manner. This means that the list of your categorized bookmarks permantly gets updated with new bookmarks that are very like to found interesting by you.This will be like having a highly personalized edition of yahoo or dmoz."

Elevator pitch of RDF for relational database users from Dave Beckett :

"RDF is a relational model where the columns and rows are infinite and the row and column names are URIs."

SourceForge: XML::RSS version 1.02 (stable) release.
"XML::RSS is a Perl module that provides a basic framework for creating and parsing RSS (RDF Site Summary) files. It supports most major RSS versions, and includes support for the RSS 1.0 modules: Dublin Core, Admin, Syndication, and Taxonomy."

RDF Gateway 1.0 released (commercial).

"RDF Gateway is a platform for the development and deployment of Semantic Web applications. It's an application server built around a powerful RDF-based deductive database. Use it to deploy Semantic Web applications on the desktop or server."

Google Hacks week two at ResearchBuzz.

Speaks, reads and Writes RDF schema (inkel) - for use in FOAF profiles etc. "The SRW schema allows to specify which languages a given person can read, speak or write."

With 6 Degrees of Separation, Computers Stay in Sync (NYT, via Graham Klyne on rdfweb-dev) could well be useful for distributed semweb data.

Dublin Core Metadata Inititiative - DCMI site overhaul.


We have just published a new version of the DCMI Web site. Please
note the following:

1. The Usage Board has simplified the documentation of metadata
terms. All of the terms maintained by DCMI are now described
in just one document:

http://dublincore.org/documents/dcmi-terms/

For legacy reasons and by popular demand, two important subsets
of these terms -- the Dublin Core Element Set and the DCMI Type
Vocabulary -- are redundantly described in stand-alone documents:

http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/
http://dublincore.org/documents/dcmi-type-vocabulary/

For pointers to other related Web pages, see the "Overview of
documentation for DCMI Metadata Terms" at

http://dublincore.org/usage/documents/overview/.

2. The Proposed Recommendation "Guidelines for implementing Dublin
Core in XML" is now available for Public Comment until March 31,
2003. Comments should be sent to DC-General.

(SIGIA-L Mail Archives) Karl Fast give a rough 5 layered model for information. The layers are content, metadata, semantic, representational, and interaction. (vie ia/)
Great quote :

Librarians kick ass on the metadata and semantic layers.
They suck on the representational and interaction layers.
